Hi Guys
Here are the newest cover scans - featuring Atom Girl!

As you'll see in the thumbnail versions - the idea is that in the actual printed version of the cover reflections of some Legionnaires will be shown in the eye that's behind Vi..er Atom Girl. These have been penciled and inked on a separate board so they can be in colorhold rather than black line - I haven't sent scans of those yet as we have to wait until DC have officially released that artwork.

Hope you enjoy seeing these - thanks as always to Nightcrawler for hosting them! Just click on the small images to open larger scans!

Very nice!

Now is it just me or is the female a new character as well? And the male other than Chameleon looks like Brainy in one of the images and Cosmic Boy in the other.

Very striking! I prefer the version in which she's looking directly at us... and colour is nice, but I really think the black & white version of the covers could stand by itself.

Awesome work as usual Barry! Thanks so much for sharing -- there's certainly no lack of ambition and creativity to how you try to bring something visually exciting to the covers every month.

And Vi with guns!! This isn't "Shy Vi" anymore is it...

I've never really been much of a fan of Vi's since the reboot so it's great to see her packing! Your kick nass Atom Girl looks good to me Barry [Smile]

That's a bit of a James Bond pose. Is Violet our new super spy? Maybe the issue will end with some guy saying, "Oh, Salu!"

I admit that I may be in the minority....I wish that the picture #2 would be made as the Legion official cover because I felt that it would entice many readers to buy that book and able to convey the message to us. that's my opinion. Overall, I CANT WAIT TO SEE HER !!!!! Yeahhhhh! [Smile]

Awesome cover! How long do we have to wait for this?!? Why doesn't Legion or bi-monthly or even weekly!

Personally, monthly works for me as that means Barry is the artist on all, the Herculian task that it already is!

Thanks for the hard work and beautiful art Barry!

LLLater!

Gorgeous, all of them, but the second one intrigues me the most. She looks dangerous in all of them, but in the second one she looks slightly vulnerable as well. (Of course, I just came from seeing Serenity, so I've got River on my mind.)

Fantastic Barry. I really like them. All those little details, it's great.

So now we have a heroine with FOUR names; Shrinking Violet/Leviathan/Atom Girl/Pistol-Packing Mama.

One of your best yet Barry!

I have said this on another thread but its worth repeating.

Wow!

There is something about Barry's dark haired women that is just so gosh durned sexy.

If he keeps doing this i may be drumed out of the Imra fan club for disloyalty. [LOL]
